From this article by Rosa, the relationship between modern domestic architecture and movies has been discussed. Upon this understanding, we could further think about the interactions in between film and architecture industries.
Film makers certainly take lots of inspirations from the architects. An example that has been shown in this article is the influence of the famous modern architect John Lautner on Hollywood productions in the late 18th century. Lautner’s 1960’s creation, the Chemosphere, is a UFO like structure with circular ceiling, perimeter glass walls and middle concrete supports. The building looks fantastically futuristic on the hill side and was chosen to be the base of the intelligent villain in 1980’s thriller. This choice did help make up the character in the movie to be outrageous and out of the world.
Film industry also has some effects on the architectures, like narrative architecture. The narrativeness of an architecture captures the backgrounds of a structure. With a flow of logic, the architect could express the concept of the building, the purpose, the things that had happened around it, the people get involved, and so on. This technique infuses narration and further thinking into the building’s different structures.

Appreciate that you brought in the idea of narrative architecture, but perhaps you can connect it to the ideas raised in the reading in a clearer manner. How would you discuss the relationship between film and architecture specifically through domestic spaces? Also, do you mean that Lautner’s architecture influenced films in the late 20th century instead of the 18th century?
